    How do I move my Windows OS to a new drive?


    I'm trying to move windows onto my NVME drive and everywhere I look has a lengthy process about backing up files. I've already wiped my PC clean, as I'm starting on a new slate. What is the fastest way to just move the OS?

    :)

    Reinstall Windows 10 to new hard drive

    Hi Rodolpho,

    We want to know about the issue you're having with your recovery drive. Please answer the questions below:

    • Are you trying to reinstall Windows 8 or Windows 10?
    • If you already upgraded to Windows 10, were you able to create a new copy of the recovery drive?

    We suggest creating a new copy of the recovery drive and then follow the steps provided by Andre Da Costa above this thread.

    Update us with the outcome so we can assist you further.
